Traducción

Translation

Toda persona que escuche con fe y devoción la historia de la muerte de Pūtanā a manos de Kṛṣṇa, la Suprema Personalidad de Dios, y que, de ese modo, empeñe su oído en la escucha de los pasatiempos infantiles de Kṛṣṇa, ciertamente se apegará a Govinda, la persona suprema original.

Any person who hears with faith and devotion about how Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, killed Pūtanā, and who thus invests his hearing in such childhood pastimes of Kṛṣṇa, certainly attains attachment for Govinda, the supreme, original person.

Significado

Purport

Sin duda, este episodio, en el que la terrible bruja trató de matar al niño, pero, por el contrario, acabó muerta, es maravilloso. Por eso en el verso se utiliza la palabra adbhutam, que significa «específicamente maravilloso». Kṛṣṇa nos ha dejado muchas narraciones maravillosas sobre Él. Por el simple hecho de leer esas narraciones, tal como se recogen en el libro Kṛṣṇa, la Suprema Personalidad de Dios, podremos liberarnos del mundo material y obtener, de forma gradual, apego y devoción por Govinda, Ādi-puruṣa.

The incident in which the great witch attempted to kill the child but was killed herself is certainly wonderful. Therefore this verse uses the word adbhutam, meaning “specifically wonderful.” Kṛṣṇa has left us many wonderful narrations about Him. Simply by reading these narrations, as they are described in Kṛṣṇa, The Supreme Personality of Godhead, one gains salvation from this material world and gradually develops attachment to and devotion for Govinda, Ādi-puruṣa.

Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Tenth Canto, Sixth Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “The Killing of the Demon Pūtanā.”
